INCOME TAXES INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2024 is based on our projected annual effective tax rate for fiscal year 2025, adjusted for specific items that are required to be recognized in the period in which they are incurred. The provision for income taxes was $49.8 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the benefit from income taxes of $22.9 for the prior year period.
When compared to the statutory rate of 21%, the effective tax rate of (23.5)% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was due primarily to tax expense of $96.8 related to an increase in valuation allowance, tax expense of $8.2 related to geographic mix of earnings offset by benefits of $17.7 from tax credits.
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “Inflation Reduction Act”) includes a new corporate alternative minimum tax (CAMT) of 15% on the adjusted financial statement income (AFSI) of corporations with an average AFSI exceeding $1.0 billion over a consecutive three-year period. The CAMT is effective for taxable year ending March 31, 2024. It is possible that the CAMT could result in an additional tax liability over the regular federal corporate tax liability in a particular year based on differences between book and taxable income. We estimate no tax liability relating to CAMT for the current fiscal year. We will continue to evaluate the potential impact the Inflation Reduction Act may have on our operations and Consolidated Financial Statements in future periods.
The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") has proposed a global minimum tax of 15% of reported profits, referred to as Pillar Two. Many countries have already implemented or are taking steps to implement Pillar Two. Although the model rules provide a framework for applying the minimum tax, countries may enact Pillar Two slightly differently that the model rules and on different timelines. Many aspects of Pillar Two are effective for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025. Pillar Two could result in additional tax liability over the regular corporate tax liability in a particular jurisdiction to the extent tax expense is less than 15% minimum rate. The impact of Pillar Two was not material to the tax
provision for the three months ended June 30, 2024. We will continue to evaluate the impact Pillar Two may have on our operations.
